Riley Greene LF | DET
Tigers' Riley Greene: Blasts 35th home run Tuesday
Greene went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's 5-2 loss to the Guardians.
Greene hit what was a big home run at the time, putting the Tigers up 2-0 in the top of the sixth inning, but Cleveland rattled off five straight runs after that for the victory. The Detroit outfielder is following up his impressive 2024 campaign with an even better 2025 season, as he's now up to 35 home runs and 110 RBI. Both of those figures lead the team, and Greene is currently fifth in the majors in RBI.

Kyle Finnegan RP | DET
Tigers' Kyle Finnegan: Struggling since return
Finnegan has allowed two runs on three hits and a walk across 1.2 innings since coming off the injured list Friday.
After missing nearly a month due to a right groin strain, Finnegan has made two relief appearances, and he's been scored on each time. In Tuesday's loss to the Guardians, the righty came on in the seventh inning with an inherited runner on first and promptly allowed a double and a single to plate two Cleveland runs. Finnegan logged 12 straight scoreless outings for the Tigers before going down with his injury, so he may simply be dealing with some rust, but he should still see high-leverage work in the last few games of the regular season as Detroit fights for a playoff spot.

Twins' Luke Keaschall: Lifted early Tuesday
Keaschall was removed from Tuesday's game against the Rangers with a left thumb injury, Audra Martin of FanDuel Sports Network North reports.
Keaschall's hand hit the bag hard during his steal of second base in the second inning, and he was eventually taken out of the game during the fourth frame. The Twins will take a closer look at him and should provide an update on his status in the near future.

Guardians' David Fry: Hit in head, exits game
Fry was removed from Tuesday's game against the Tigers after getting hit in the head by a foul ball, Tim Stebbins of MLB.com reports.
Fry was hit in the face after fouling off an attempted bunt in the sixth inning. He was carted off the field immediately afterward and transported to a local hospital for further evaluation. The Guardians should provide an update on his status in the near future.

Corey Seager SS | TEX
Rangers' Corey Seager: Won't return in 2025
Manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday that Seager (abdomen) will miss the rest of the season, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Seager recently resumed light baseball activities after undergoing an appendectomy in late August, but the team won't bother rushing him back now that they sit five games back of a wild-card spot with only six left to play. Despite missing time this year with hamstring injuries in addition to his recent procedure, the 31-year-old slashed .271/.373/.487 while collecting 21 home runs, 50 RBI, 61 runs and three stolen bases across 102 games.

Marcus Semien 2B | NYM
Rangers' Marcus Semien: Ruled out for 2025
Manager Bruce Bochy said Tuesday that Semien (foot) will not play again this season, Jeff Wilson of AllDLLS.com reports.
Semien resumed taking live BP and running Friday, but with the Rangers five games out of a wild-card spot with six to play, the team will pull the plug on its efforts to get the veteran infielder back in the lineup this year. He'll close the book on 2025 with a career-low .669 OPS alongside 15 homers, 62 RBI, 62 runs scored and 11 steals through 127 games. Cody Freeman projects to be the Rangers' primary second baseman for the remainder of the regular season.

Bryan Woo SP | SEA
Mariners' Bryan Woo: Next start delayed
Woo (pectoral) won't start in his usual rotation spot Thursday, Daniel Kramer of MLB.com reports.
General manager Justin Hollander said Tuesday that the team still doesn't plan to place Woo on the injured list, and that the right-hander will instead play catch Wednesday or Thursday rather than start a game against the Rockies. A better idea of how far away the 25-year-old is from returning will likely emerge after his throwing session.

Ty France 1B | SD
Blue Jays' Ty France: Lands on injured list
The Blue Jays placed France on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with left oblique inflammation.
France's injury will force him to miss the remainder of the regular season, though he will be eligible to return before the start of the ALDS. His move to the IL will clear a roster spot for Anthony Santander (shoulder), who was activated from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move.

Anthony Santander RF | TOR
Blue Jays' Anthony Santander: Activated Tuesday
The Blue Jays reinstated Santander (shoulder) from the injured list Tuesday.
Santander had been out since late May with a left shoulder injury but began playing in rehab games with Triple-A Buffalo on Sept. 11. Since starting up his assignment, the 30-year-old slugger has gone 7-for-32 (.219) with two homers, five RBI and four runs scored across 10 games. Now fully healthy, he'll likely take over as Toronto's primary designated hitter for the remainder of the regular season and postseason despite posting a .577 OPS in 209 plate appearances before going down. Ty France (oblique) was placed on the IL in a corresponding move, and Alek Manoah was DFA'd to clear space on the 40-man roster.
